Publisher's Synopsis
This book contains the ECNI mass spectra of 361 compounds selected to include the major classes of environmental contaminants, such as those found on the US Environmental Protection Agency's priority pollutant list. Compound classes of environmental importance include halogenated benzenes and phenols, nitrobenzenes and the related dinitro herbicides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, DDT derivatives, hexachlorocyclopentadiene pesticides, halogenated biphenyls, dioxins, and dibenzofurans.;The spectra, measured at Indiana University on a Hewlett Packard 5985B GC/MS system with the ion source at 100/"'C and 250"'C, are reported graphically. In addition, compound name, Chemical Abstract registry number, molecular weight, and structure are given. This collection of reference spectra will be of use to environmental scientists and to analytical chemists concerned with the sensitive detection and identification of synthetic chemicals in a wide variety of matrices.
